He's thrilled when she squeezes his hand but a nurse explains that the muscle reaction is typical of coma patients.

Curious, Meg discovers what they are but when he realizes he's been found out, she ignores them. Arriving in Idaho, Silas orders J.J. to say his new name Jacob Jenkins and adds that he and Ava are his new parents. When J.J. angrily refuses, he warns the thug that his father will come get him. Meanwhile, Jack runs into trouble when he asks for a beer at a local bar. Kit the bartender quickly guesses he's a cop.
